Reproduce the failure using the provided `python3 -m sglang.launch_server` command and capture the complete inference traceback, which is not included in the issue body. Compare the behavior with the specified GLM-4.7, AMXINT4, CUDA, and flashinfer configuration; done means identifying the failing component and confirming that a prompt completes successfully.
